What I don’t understand is, if it’s so damn cute and quirky and trendy to be a socially awkward nerd, then why don’t I have any friends? I am literally Tina from Bob’s Burgers, and everyone thinks that cool and nerdy and fashionable, so why does everyone just think I’m a weirdo? Why do I not have a band of followers?

Haha…..Um, am I the only one that sees that some of these “pinners” are just trolling you with these ridiculous ideas….. I mean, cocoa and lotion, really? Brown sugar in your hair? Come on people. Grow a brain.

What I resent most about this article, as an American who has never been abroad, is the humble-bragging about “living in Europe.” Major eyeroll. Backpacking on your parents’ dime and staying in hostels, is not “living in Europe.” Sorry.

Here’s how to know if you have found a good tattoo artist:
They have a website. A well designed website.
They have many different artistic projects going on: they’re graphic designers, street artists, muralists, painters, illustrators, etc. AS WELL AS being a tattoo artist.
They have a degree(s) in an ART-related subject.
They talk about art, love art, and sketch FOR FUN.
They have tons of sketch books full of ideas.
They’re willing to freehand draw right on your body.
They actually give you suggestions on how to improve your tattoo idea/design and can draw up a design right in front of you in minutes.
These tattoo artists exist, and you have to pay top dollar for them, but it’s worth it.

Because they never studied/practiced how to actually fucking draw. Good tattoo artists are traditional media artists as well, meaning, they can paint, draw, etc., and they’ve put years of work into improving their skills. Good artists are the ones that spend hours and hours a day sketching, reading up on techniques, taking classes, etc. Good artists have an actual love and appreciation for art!

NEWSFLASH:
If you don’t know how to draw you probably shouldn’t become a tattoo artist.You’d think that was common sense, but apparently not.I don’t understand why people get into tattooing when they’re not obsessed with/love drawing/art, and they’re not willing to put the work into improving they’re technical skills.
Corey Miller is a good example of someone who appreciates art and loves to paint, draw, and he’s an amazing tattoo artist because of it.

First of all, you wasted an opportunity with these stupid questions.Second, when did Zac become the hot one? DAMN.Third, why the hell does Taylor have a Leica M9? I doubt the dude has any idea how to use it.

And this is exactly what is wrong with this country.You don’t agree with same-sex marriage. Ok, fine! BUT that DOESN’T give you the right to try and keep OTHERS from doing so.I am SO FCKING SICK of the “I think it’s wrong, so YOU need to stop doing it” argument. Worry about YOURSELF, and let others live their lives!
Why is this so hard to comprehend?!

Flat white = No-Foam Latte & Long Black = Americano
What bugs me the most (yes, I’ve been a barista) is how customers act like they’re looking at the menu for the very first time, but in fact, they know exactly what you serve, and have been to the place several times and always get the same thing…
What is that “frozen” drink with the carmel? …give me a, what’s your biggest size? *facepalm*
